Fantasy Draft League with real players possible?

I apologize if this question has been posted/answered before, I couldn't find it.

Is it possible to create a league using MLB parameters and real players, but have it be a fantasy league with an inauguration draft?

I've tooled around or quite a while and can't find a way to do this.

Very easy to do.
Choose the MLB startup year that you want to go with.
When you have that loaded, click on your league at the top of the game screen, choose League Settings from that menu, and it should take you right to the functions page, if not, make sure league settings is selected, click on Functions on the line below it, then near the upper right corner under popular functions is what you want to create a "fantasy" draft.
(See the attached photo--it's simple)

If you're like me and can't stand the thought of your favorite hometown player playing for the league rival, look under "Other Functions" in the lower right corner, and you can randomize team cities and nicknames, or rename them all yourself.

Have fun
